F*Ck! mukhang tanga kami jan! it costs $179! not $149! im very disappointed that you forgot to do some little homework!

“The Iconia A1 is a sleek 7.9-inch Android slate priced at $179. It comes equipped with 16GB of onboard storage with microSD support up to 32GB, an Intel Atom processor, 7.5 hours of battery life and runs Android 4.2.1. The 7-inch Iconia B1 is even cheaper at just $129 but has watered-down specs, including a 1.3GHz dual-core processor, 16GB of storage, 1GB of RAM, a 5-hour battery and Android 4.2.1 pre-installed.”

Well in their souce says its 149$. Probably other site says 179$.

I heard this acer a1 before, and was interested to it. Told myself if this is available here in Ph, will buy one for me, but since its only B1 is only model available at that time, I settled for iMini :-)
